So here comes Christmas – are you ready? Have you shopped for everyone, planned all the meals and gatherings, and coordinated the family’s schedule to a Tee? What? You’re getting stressed just thinking about it??
Calm down, relax, grab a cup of cocoa and browse these great gift ideas for YOURSELF…. and enter to WIN something special, too. Okay? Okay!

I got the pleasure of receiving a variety of cute socks from SockPrints. These are adorable custom printed socks that can be personalized. The 2 moms that started the company began it right on the soccer field when they wanted a fun, personalized option for their kids. It would make a great favor for parties, a fun giveaway for club or team events, and a great way to pamper yourself – with something you can create just for yourself!

The socks I received were of great quality, and the printing on them is long-lasting, fun, and very vibrant! Want to order a few pair for yourself, your friends, or family? They are available in men and women sizes. Check out their website for custom socks and don’t forget to sign up in the top left for their newsletter…you’ll get a valuable coupon! Find them on Facebook and Twitter as well.

Are you ready to let your hair down and have a fun game night with the girls? This game, Love It! Hate It!, is great for anyone ages 12 and up and is played with 3-7 players. I recommend at least 5 or 6 because then it gets really wild and fun! It’s a cute game that can turn wacky really fast as each player responds to the card with an answer that they would love and an answer they would hate according to the question.

This game was a 2011 People’s Play Awards Nominee in the Party Game category. You can see the video explaining the game a bit here:

It retails for just $24.99 and would be an awesome way to de-stress and LAUGH OUT LOUD any time you have a small group together!! It is so much fun and the answers that folks come up with can be PRICELESS. You’ll be talking about this game for weeks afterward, I promise.

Keep up to date on the latest from Patch Products on their Facebook page! They have lots of other great games available.

Do you see this necklace? It is SOOO neat. It is a bendy necklace from Istatica. It’s a flexible, stainless steal piece of jewelry (which is available in many colors and a few different sizes) that is fully customizable. I got several compliments wearing the necklace as shown. As shown, it’s basically twisting the necklace together from one half to the other. However, you can also open it up into the big loop (It’s actually really long when it’s not flattened in half to twist!), put it on, adjust the necklace hole to whatever size you want, and then you’re left with a long bendy portion to shape into whatever you’d like – I shaped it into a knot one day, a rose the next, a swirly the next, and a teardrop the next. No matter how I styled it, it was great and my 6 year old daughter tried to steal it away OFTEN because she thought it was so cool, too!
I’m glad I chose this one, because the color combination goes with pretty much all of my other accessories… I could see purchasing the bold green one or the pink rosy boa color if I were to purchase another for my daughter. They are such a statement piece and REALLY interesting. I was impressed with how well the necklace held its shape after I bent it how I wanted it! The site also has earrings and rings, so you may want to check out those awesome products as well! What an awesome stocking stuffer or Valentine’s gift, too!

Do you want to WIN your own bendy necklace? One lucky winner will get to choose one necklace from the Istatica site as their very own prize. Sounds like a great way to pamper yourself this holiday season!! (If you’re reading this from my homepage, click “READ MORE” to be taken to the entry form!)
